Never Is the Next New Thing

In Honor of Madonna’s 50th Birthday

by

I have a Madonna concert t-shirt that’s older than some of you bloggers.

Click the photo to see what year the shirt is from

Speaking of people who weren’t born when I bought my t-shirt, congratulations to Style Rookie, Childhood Flames, Fashion Robot, Fashion Toast, That’s Just My Vibe and Fashion Pirates who are all mentioned on page 212 of T: The New York Times Style Magazine!

  2. I still have the first Madonna album–and I am talking vinyl. Gasp, I feel old.;-)

  6. Madonna at 50… WOW… where did the time go… I remember dressing up like Desperately Seeking Susan character… lace socks, leggings, bracelets and all!
    She looks GREAT!

  7. Congrats to the fashion teens bloggers, how great.

    I don’t remember what I was doing in the year of your shirt… that makes me young or old??? LOL LOL

    Have a nice weekend

    xx

  9. Hmm… I was in the first grade in 1990, I think. I’ve sort of erased all of that from my memory.

  11. nice shirt – i remember dressing up exactly like her in the ‘like a virgin’ video – i was probably grounded soon after.

  12. Ha-ha! My family had a cat they got before me, I was always bitter because my sister would tell me she had loved the cat longer! 🙁

  19. WendyB, you are the queen of birthday blogging lately. Good job!

    So, this is what summer in NYC feels like? Well, it only made it to 98 today and is supposed to be 77 on Monday–hooray! We’ve endured it well.

  20. enc.. ha ha I was going to say the same thing about the carpet..

    that’s Sisal isn’t it? We have coir carpet.. it’s a bit rough..

    well I’m not that young. that was when I just got into a private high school after working my butt off to pass its high entrance mark.

  22. I’m so old that 1990 doesn’t even seem that long ago! (first year out of high school, for the record).

    I remember Madonna when she was a little bit soft and squishy looking, rather than scary and sinewy!
